onTick( ) maxruntime?

Post by eacmen »

What is the max recommended runtime for onTick? Does this run in a separate RTOS task or is it part of the RCP main loop?

What I am really asking is if onTick takes a long time does it lock up the rest of the RCP from doing anything else?

thanks!

Sorry for the delay.

There's no impact on the system with a long running or forever running onTick() - subsequent onTicks() just don't occur until the current onTick() is complete.

Hope this helps,
